Title:
Please remove the plymouth dependency from mountall / cryptsetup
Status in cryptsetup:
Fix Released
Status in mountall package in Ubuntu:
Won't Fix
Bug description:
Binary package hint: mountall
I noticed that mountall (and cryptsetup) depends on plymouth now.
Whatever plymouth is doing or not doing, my headless system is booting
fine without plymouth (dpkg --force-depends -P plymouth), yet all
disks (local, NFS) are mounted and cryptsetup is setting up encrypted
swap as it used to.
IMHO the "Depends: plymouth" is too hard and should be replaced with
"Recommends:" or "Suggests:" for the following reasons:
- Headless systems won't ever see what plymouth is doing ("graphical boot
animation")
- Plymouth itself depends on quite a few libraries (libdrm-*), unnecessarily
adding code to the installation- Mountall is of "Priority: required" while
plymouth is "optional". The "Depends:" makes plymouth essentially "required" as
well and cannot be uninstalled w/o --force options.
Please reconsider this dependency.
